Firm Feel UCA's Small Ball Joint pics and review.
Hi All
Just wanted to post some pics and thoughts about the Firm Feel UCA's in case anyone else was looking for them on FABO. I Ordered them on a Friday and received them the next Thursday. I ordered by phone and got an email confirmation and tracking number within a few hours. They came packed very well, almost excessively. They were the "Small Ball Joint UCA's" with the bushings and BJ installed. The cost was $400 and $12 shipping from Washington State to San Diego.
They are very heavy and sturdy feeling compared to my standard UCA's. The welds look good and the bushings look like the ones I got from my PST poly kit. The ball joint looks like a better quality than standard replacement parts. The big bump stops are a very nice poly material and extra thick.
They installed flawlessly. There's an instruction in the box that talks about possibly shaving the UCA bushing area, but for mine they cleared. I test drove them and they feel extra firm and have eliminated some of the lean I was getting with my original UCA's with poly kits.
DO NOT BUY the WSD Ebay UCA's and try to install ball joints and bushings in them. I learned the hard way. That route cost me more $$, time, and almost my life.
If you want to keep your Drum Brake setup and need a small Bjoint UCA I recommend these.
